True enough but I've always counted on a common sense factor to override the legal liability. Which brings up a point, how is one supposed to expose his/her firearm for repair, fittings, etc? We have discussed back and forth about the legality of employing a CHL at a shooting range and defense to prosecution exists for carry to and from stores and or repair shops. I believe the consensus was that the defense to prosecution of using the weapon in a sporting event where such weapons are commonly used would apply at the range, what about to and from stores/gunsmiths?sjfcontrol wrote:Technically, it is not even legal for you to un-conceal in your friends house with his permission. But in either case, somebody would have to make a complaint to the police for any action to be taken. I suppose in the case of the gun store, a LEO might be present without your knowledge. But I believe it would be unlikely a LEO would take any action if you had the owners permission Just be aware there is no exception in the law to cover these exposures.Vol Texan wrote:I've often wondered about that. Is it legal to in-conceal in a place where the person in charge has approved it? Please note I'm talking about specific isolates instances (such as the limited exposure that is possible in a private LGS), as opposed to "the Walmart manager said I could do it at the register (which I'd never consider to be appropriate!).Dragonfighter wrote:
I have had occasion to need to withdraw my handgun and clear it, with his permission.
Perhaps this needs to be added to the laundry list of legislative corrections needed. Of course OC would allow such by default.
